The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 223

Xue Wan quickly disappeared from people's sights, and never caused any waves, leaving only a few gossips in the chats of a few women.Whether it is contempt or disdain, it is just a few words of talk and it will disappear with the wind.

Chu Xu and Shi Chuying found a holiday banquet for their colleagues.It is not accurate to say that they are colleagues. Chu Xu and Shi Chuying also discussed to invite the brothers from the old house, the clan brothers, and the daily friends who helped them in their marriage. Cang and Chen Tianbao knew each other, and Shi Chuying even met Gu Die Die!But more people are meeting for the first time.

Twenty or thirty big men in the outer courtyard rushed to drink a jar of truffle wine. This was a large jar that Shi Chuying gave a merciful 'reward' to. As soon as it was opened, the men couldn't hold back and swarmed up to snatch it. They were quick and skillful. Even after drinking two gulps, the slow-wielding wine jars were not touched, and it was Chu Xu who pushed the crowd to snatch the wine jars back, so that each of them got two or three wine jars.

It's a pity that there are more wolves and less meat. This little wine is not enough to wet the teeth of a man. It's just a very good wine. How can I drink anything else?

Shi Chuying entertained the female family members in the inner house, but there were too many female family members who came this time, far exceeding the expectations on the post, and I don't know what these ladies think, not only came in person, but even the old lady, mother-in-law and married couple The younger sisters and others came with them... Seeing that the number of people almost doubled, Shi Chuying couldn't help but roll her eyes secretly, didn't they mean they were all educated people?Is it really not a villain to do so?

Thanks to the fact that they specially added manpower to the kitchen when they bought people before, but the steward of the kitchen still came to tell Shi Chuying that one of the dishes originally prepared for tomorrow is also used, and there is still a gap, so it needs to be purchased in a temporary area Some.Even the original dining restaurant was changed to "Sudden House", and even women and children opened up 5 tables!
As the hostess, Shi Chuying sat in the main hall with a smile on her face to entertain the guests and talked, and gave a group of meeting gifts such as jewelry, pens and inks to the children who met for the first time, and even wiped out the few leftover jade carving aromatherapy bags from last time!Shi Chuying sighed secretly, the floor of her warehouse was thinner again!
After seeing off the guests, Shi Chuying washed and stripped Chu Xu, who was drunk but not drunk, and settled down on the bed, fed him a cup of homemade hangover soup, and let him sleep, while she followed a few stewards Check out today's gift giving with my wife.

Aunt Chen glanced at his wife and said: "Ten pairs of small gold bracelets, seven jade sachets, five inkstones, ten small boxes of pine smoke ink, two pearl hairpins..."

Shi Chuying said, I have made ten gold locks in total, and now I have sent out the matching bracelets first, and she hasn't warmed up the ten carved jade sachets, this time It's all delivered?Fortunately, she still let the high-quality pine smoke ink be divided into two small boxes, which saved half of the money. It seems that there will be more small packaging gifts in the future!
However, Shi Chuying also received more than a dozen gifts, although they were not expensive, it was a way of coming and going frequently.Among them, Shi Chuying likes a small kang screen the most, a pair of embroidered cats fluttering butterflies inlaid with nanmu, it is vivid, although the embroidery skills are exquisite, but because the kang screen is a small piece, it will not be very expensive.

Naturally, Shi Chuying's mind was different from others'. What she saw was not just a picture of a lively kang screen, but another option for preparing gifts after seeing her own home.

After being busy with this matter, Chu Xu and Shi Chuying also counted the first month of their wedding, and there was no need to be shy about anything, so Shi Chuying said hello to Chu Xu, and began to take Erfei to visit the capital.After all, in terms of her habit of "taking the mountain as king", it is really unbearable not to step on the place where she is standing.

Shi Chuying had visited the main streets of Dongshi City last time, and now Shi Chuying and Shi Chuying only visited some streets and alleys.Shi Chuying came to these places firstly to 'spot the spot', and secondly, to find some things that can be given as gifts.

She has only been in the capital for less than a month, and she discovered that in the capital there are so many gifts that need to be given. They often give gold or silver, and the gifts are also very large, but it is really unbearable for a poor family.

The small gold lock and silver lock bracelets that she asked to play last time have already been delivered, and now they have started the second round.

Not to mention, there are many unexpected and interesting objects in these relatively less prosperous areas.She discovered a small inkstone screen that was only bigger than a palm, and it was specially placed on the table in the study to protect the inkstone pool from the wind, so as to prevent the ink inside from being blown dry too quickly by the wind;

There is also a two-fold small screen of more than one foot, called a table screen, which is different from the kang screen in that it is light and ingenious, and is only suitable for placing on a desk, unlike the slightly larger kang screen.Whether it is used to decorate a room, or placed on a table for appreciation, they are all exquisite and extraordinary, and the price is not cheap.

It's just that, in Shi Chuying's view, the flower shapes of these screen cores are too common. Shi Chuying can draw by herself, so she doesn't care about these boring flower shapes. Fish, or squirrels in the forest, or butterflies falling, or frogs on lotus leaves, all kinds of wild fun make people very happy.Inlaid into exquisite small inkstone screens and small screens are very suitable as gifts for juniors or peers.

Among them was a small picture of a fairy riding a crane that was carefully embroidered by Mrs. Wang. Even Aunt Yue kept saying that it was a gift with a red sandalwood frame when she saw it.

After Shi Chuying discovered the magical effect of these small screens, she stayed at home for several days to draw pictures quietly. After three or four days in a row, she finally handed over a stack of more than 50 pictures to Mrs. Wang, and told the embroidery room to carefully embroider them. , she herself took Erfei to Beishan to play again.
